Unable to access Preference Pane! webpages corrupt!

For some odd reason, Safari will not load images and displays pages in a random mess. I am not able to access preferences either - autofill dialogue window appears in it's place.
Yes I did just to an update and then things all went wrong - I wish safari was as good as Firefox

In OS X Tiger, a small pill button can be found in the upper right corner of the Preference Panel. If you click on it, either the Preference Panel will expand or contract based on its existing appearance. Sounds like the Panel was set to its contracted state. Recreating the Preference file is one way to remedy the problem, as the default is the expanded state. The other way would have been to click on the pill button, which would have preserved your existing preference selections.
As you have reset your Preferences, make sure you reestablish any of your custom preferences both in the Preference Panels and in the View and Edit (spelling) menus. One last thing, if you open your Bookmarks Manager (command/option/B keys) you'll notice you have new Bookmark collections courtesy of the Preference reset. You can highlight/delete these if you don't want them.

Is this still occurring?

Unable to access preferences pane

I downloaded Reader 9.3 on my PC and cannot open the preference pane under the edit tab. Sound familliar?
I need to go to edit> preferences> Java Script and uncheck "Enable global object security policy" checkbox. Thing is, the preference pane will not pop-up. I tried deleting Java Script and downloaded the newest version. I deleted Adobe and downloaded the reader 9.3 again. I did the help> repair. I even tried the ReadOutLoud.api.bak trick and rebooted but that did not work either. Any other tricks to try?

I am sorry to hear that you aren't finding a solution to your issue.
Here's what I did when I came up with the same problem. Yes, this is an ebook that I received from my school.
I downloaded the ebook and then tried to "Open" instead of "Save". When I saved the attachment and then opened, I could open the file without the error. I received the error when I tried to Open it from the school website.
I researched the term "Trusted Manager Preference". Go to "Edit", "Preferences", "Trusted Manager", "Change Settings". Ensure that the checkbox with "Let Me Specify a list of ...". The box with "My Web Sites" has a Always Block next to the site. Type that website into the allow box, Click Allow. This will add it to the My Web site box. Delete the site that is always blocked.
This worked for me. Hopefully it will work for you.

Unable to access Preferences/Advanced/Burning

iTunes 7.7.1
Every time I try to access Preferences/Advanced/Burning, the program hangs. I logged into a new user area and updated iTunes to 7.7.1 and it does the same thing.

Unable to access preferences

I'm trying to learn to use idvd 6. I want to do a slide show with music. When I go to the help menu, it tells me to go to preferences to set the 'TV safe area'. I click on IDVD, a drop down menu appears, but the first 7 choices starting with About IDVD are grayed out.
How do I fix this problem so I can access the menu choices?

Occasionally a file within the application gets its
permissions screwed up and locks you out. That can
affect menus as well as other functionality. First
run Disk Utility and repair disk permissions. If
that doesn't help, make a duplicate copy of the
application and try the following:
Download and run BatChmod</
a> on the iDVD application file with the settings
shown here, putting your
administartive name in the owner and group sections.
You can either type in the path to the application or
just drag the application into that
field.
Although the permissions give more to you that
normally would but it will work if that's the
problem. If it doesn't and you don't want to keep
the modified version, trash it and rename the backup
to just iDVD.app.

Like so much in ilife the answer is simple if you know the right question to ask. I just needed to put in a completed project and save it. Then the drop down menu comes up in black, not greyed out! How simple. Blush:))))

Unable to access mass.gov webpage through FIOS

I can't access www.mass.gov from any computer in my house using FIOS. Tried all 5+ devices with wired and wifi connections. Nothing works. I know the website is working because I can access it from the Comcast connection at work. Also I can load the page using Verizon 4g/3g on my phone tablet if I turn wifi off. My father called tech support the other day. The tech ran some tests and discovered that he could not access the site either. They said they would "look into it" Have not heard anything else.
Anyone else having this issue?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have a feeling this is a bad route, bogon issue vs a DNS issue.
If you can access your router, do the following, and you'll hopefully be working in 5 minutes.
Actiontec MI424-WR - RELEASE DHCP
Click on MY NETWORK icon at the top.
Select NETWORK CONNECTIONS from the menu on the left.
Select BROADBAND CONNECTION (coax or ethernet) depending on your connection to the ONT.
Click SETTINGS
Click RELEASE
Click APPLY
Disconnect the router immediately to prevent it from re-requesting a DHCP lease ---- wait 5 minutes, and turn it all back on and try again
It has mostly to do with the buying of IP address ranges by ISPs as they add new customers. A range could be used by some bad guys and thus get added to the filters. Then a legitimate ISP buys the range to use for their customers, but the filters don't get updated for a long time, so until they do those sites using the outdated filters become inaccessable. I have had this happen maybe a dozen times over the years, getting a new IP address from the ISP has always fixed the problem - and really, the easiest way to for the IP address update is to just turn off the router for a while, could take 1 minute, 5 minutes, up to hours to get a new one not in the blocked range.
The filter problem can occur at the actual inaccessible website, or at any routers along the path from you to the site. Eventually the problem will go away as the filters get updated, but unfortunately that can take a long time, some sites are not very diligent about updating their filters.
Just part of life on the internet....

Can't access Preferences in Safari 5.0.5

I have an older Mac Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and Safari 5.0.5. I've been unable to access Preferences in Safari--half the time the web page doesn't change, the other half the program crashes.
Any ideas?

I'd try opening up any Music Project, or Podcast Episode (a garageband project) and trying it. However; I can access GB Prefs while not having a project open. Might be just you, or just me. Either way, try opening up a project.

User Preference Panes dimmed, unable to access...

I am "in charge" of our network which consists of 10 PowerMac G5s, an XServe and XRAID. We are currently running 10.4.6 throughout.
We are adding some WACOM tablets to a couple stations, but I have been unable to access the WACOM preference pane in the system preferences. The WACOM software creates a new row below the "System" row, and adds it's preference pane. When logged in as a user this pane is visible, but dimmed out. When I log in as root the preference becomes available, and I am able to tune the tablet.
I have used the latest driver, and have installed / uninstalled a few times. I have installed as root, and as a user with identical results as above.
The Workgroup Manager has NOT been configured to manage user preferences; there are three options that I see, "Never", "Once", and "Always"- "Never" is selected.
I am looking for a way to make the WACOM pane available to the user. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Tried Repairing Permissions on the machine after installation?
I would have thought that installing as Root would be a bad idea (might cause permissions problems). An 'admin' user should be sufficient. Do 'plain' users have any restrictions set on them in their Accounts preferences?
It doesn't sound like it has anything to do with the server though, (if you are not using managed preferences). If you get no joy here (server forum) you might want to try the genera Tiger forum area.

Unable to access options in Preference panes

In the General tab of the Security & Privacy pane I am unable to open any of the options after unlocking.
Also in the iCloud preference pane I can't add Safari or Keychain (selection box and name greyed out), Account Details doesn't open either.
This is on a late 2007 mbp after upgrading to Mavericks.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Try deleting the com.apple.systempreferences.plist.
You need to look in your user Library/Preferences for the .plist. Either hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command and select your user Library in your home folder or use the Finder “Go To Folder” command and enter ~/Library/Preferences. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Open test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If tthe same, return the .plist(s) to where you got them from, overwriting the newer ones.
If you prefer to make your User library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
Show User Library
You might want to bookmark the command. I have to use it again after every update. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

Internet Accounts Preference pane corrupted after 10.9.5 update

After loading the 10.9.5 update I noticed that my Internet Accounts preferences pane in System Preferences is corrupted. The pane shows mostly blank, but will show graphic corruption if I move the window around. It has the list of accounts even though you cannot see them. If I click on the first account location my iCloud account shows up on the right. The list under it doesn't show, but it is also present. I have gone through and trashed a few plist files that look related. I tried most of the items related to problems in this area, but I have been unable to figure out what is causing this anomaly. The only other problem I have that is related is that if I try to create a new Mail account, the account type picker has the last item with a radio button, but no graphic. If I select it, it shows an example AOL address, but the rest of the text is not correct.
This is the add account pane in mail. I assume that last one is supposed to be AOL.
This is the pane that shows up when selecting the blank entry. It sort of looks like a foreign language without the right font.
I am going to try re-loading the combo pack upgrade for Mavericks to see if that can correct this. Any ideas are appreciated. Did 10.9.5 pull out the AOL option and just not do it right on my system?
Just found a related issue. Add Account in Contacts (need to add a directory account) doesn't do anything. I had a directory account during the upgrade, but removed all accounts and re-added all back except that one since I cannot.
Thanks

I did the Safe Boot again and had the problem. I still have the problem after rebooting into normal mode. Looks like there is an uncaught exception when I select to add an account in the address book. There are similar uncaught exceptions when I got into the internet accounts preference pane as well.

Unable to access Network Preferences

When going into network preferences I am recieving a message: "You cannot open Network Preferences pane because it is not availible to you at this time."
Because of it I cannot access a lot of components in the system preferences. I made sure The wifi is working since I can browse websites. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is solved: it was a policy set that I wasn't aware of.

Preferences pane and Mail crash when I access accounts in Mavericks

Mail won't work on my iMac all of a sudden. Initially it just failed to launch and had to be force quit. I managed to reset Mail and it launches but doesn't do anything - no accounts showing up. (Before this happened, smart mailboxes stopped working).
If I try to delete my iCloud accounts the preferences pane freezes when I click on iCloud (and, bizarrely, my bluetooth keyboard stops working - has to be disconnected and reconnected)
Messages also needs to be force quit - so it seems like an iCloud issue.
I'm trying to delete my iCloud account from the iMac to start again, after reading somewhere that this might be the solution, or it was something to do with iCloud keychain.
I restarted my Mac in safe mode, but the problem still occurs: spinning beach ball when I go to the preference pane.
I can access email on my Macbook Air (also running Mavericks) and on iOS devices.
Resetting Mail did not work. Removing extensions did not work.
Any suggestions gratefully received!

I have a similar problem. Although, for me, Mail doesn't crash. I have two email accounts; Yahoo and Gmail. My experience is that Mail will pick up my new emails from Gmail, but not Yahoo.

Unable to access Login Items for Accounts in System Preferences

I've created an image for computers at my school. When I go into System Preferences>Accounts, and authenticate, I am unable to access the Login Items tab. The tab isn't grayed out or anything. It's just that when I click on it, nothing happens. It stays on the Password tab. The only way I can get out of it is to quit System Preferences. Any ideas?

If you are connecting to a OS X Server, make sure that you're not managing Login Items (Click on Preferences in WorkGroup Manager, then Login, then the Items tab). I had the same problem and setting that preference to Never solved it for me.

Not able to access desktop preference pane after Yosemite upgrade

I upgraded my early 2008 Mac Pro to Yosemite and now I can't change my desktop image or even access the preference pane for it. When I try to, I get a message that says "Preferences Error - Could not load Desktop and Screen Saver preference pane." It looks like my desktop.plist have disappeared. Does anyone know how to fix this?

when I loginto EM, Application Policies > Create Application Grant
here it is asking for grantee and permissions. if I click + to add grantee and search for weblogic....there I got it.
if I try to add permission.........here I can see 1.permissions 2. resources
I dont know what to select from above for presentation server admin role....there are so many options out there.
another question is I want to remove Administrator user because there is no more Administrator here in 11g and BIAdministrator is a role can have multiple users ex: weblogic, obiadmin etc.
so can I remove Administrator user in EM and create new user i.e 'obiadmin' and grant full admin access just for obiee and em. and weblogic user can only access admin console .....????
appreciate for your help!
Thanks
Jay.

Unable to launch Apple Qmaster Preference Pane

I had a problem with an error message telling me that the "qmasterd" was not running. So I dragged everything that I could find associated with the Apple Qmaster into the trash, emptied and reinstalled.
Now when I try to launch the Apple Qmaster Preference Pane, it fails.
Any ideas on what's going on and how to start with a clean slate?
Thanks!

After you installed Qmaster, did you remember to update it? Also, when the Qmaster pane crashes there should be an error message if you click the Report button.
Have you tried this?

Unable to access/load a specific webpage through gateway

I am unable to access http://giftedhomeschoolers.org from any of our devices on our home network. This is the only website that we are have this issue. Tried on several computers (MAC, Windows) and mobile devices (Kindle, iPhone). On iPhone, when I disable the wifi I am able to get to the site. Any help is appreciated.

In these situations it can be basically four things:
1) DNS problem: the AT&T DNS servers can't resolve the IP address of the site
2) Server black list: AT&T is deliverately blocking traffic to the IP based on earlier misdeeds from it
3) Routing issue: There's a bad routing table somewhere between you and the remote site
4) Site Configuration Issue: The server is configured not to respond to your IP address range, due to outdated configuration issue, or blocking due to past misdeeds at your address.
You can work with AT&T Technical Support on 1 through 3, though the tier 1 people won't have a clue, and half of the tier 2 people won't either, and the rest may not be able to spare the time.
You'd have to work with the site itself if the problem is #4.
